Infinity Ward details Modern Warfare 3's Folding Scopes and Punisher Grenade Launcher.

Official Xbox Magazine's » latest issue arrives in stores on Friday, 2nd September and it comes with plenty of details on Modern Warfare 3.

The game will be packed with a variety of guns which can be used in different situations, but according to Infinity Ward's creative strategist Robert Bowling, you won't always have to swap your weapon to switch styles.

Certain weapons will allow you to fold down the scopes, changing your play style from long-range to close-quarters combat in a matter of seconds.

"Say you're picking guys in windows out long range in Manhattan, but then kick through a door and start clearing a building. You can now fold down your magnifying scope and already have a close-range optic on your gun - so now you're engaging guys close-target without having to change weapon." - Infinity Ward creative strategist, Robert Bowling

Tons of research goes into making video games, especially ones that resolve around real-life military situations. According to OXM, the developers decided to introduce folding scopes after discussions with real-life Delta Force operators.

In the same interview Bowling detailed a new weapon called the XM25 air burst grenade launcher or "Punisher." The XM25 was seen in the E3 demo of single player level "Black Tuesday" but it hasn't been talked about much.

"It's great for when you're fighting in an urban environment. If a guy is behind a concrete barrier, you can laser-tag that cover point, fire over it and it will then programme the round to explode one metre past it. Anyone hiding behind it will be showered down." - Infinity Ward creative strategist, Robert Bowling

Issue 77 of Official Xbox Magazine arrives in stores on Friday, 2nd September which coincidentally is the same day that Call of Duty XP kicks off. The magazine promises an "absolute landslide of Modern Warfare 3 news and views."

im fine with grenade launchers in story mode and spec ops but they should keep them out of mulitplayer or maybe make it so they cant be used in certain gametypes like search and destroy.

I hope noob tubes are removed from the multi-player as for scopes I think they should be introduced into online.
